Short Talks With my Boys.

Boys, do not try learn to use to- bacco. Stop a minute and let Us consider the matter. Why should you wish to learn? Oh, because Harry uses it, tllatis your reason, We'll, does it do Harry any good? You ''don't know as it does." Very we'll then, let's consider the reasons against it's use. Tn the first place, it is injurious to tle health; it is also expensive, and moreover, filthy. Now how do the ayes and noes balances Don't for a moment imagiae 1t is d "snart" thing to do, Any fool can use it, use it, bat it sometimes takes a smart boy to have mauliness to re. fuse to do as his silly mates are doing. By this do not mean to be understood as saying only fools use tobacco, but l do say there is nothing smart or manly in learning to use it. Nothing smart, but that other thing that people designate with d sheer as ''smarty.
 l have rothing severe to say to those who have become confirmed in the habit of using the weed. for habit is as rcmoreesess as pair of handcuffs, but I have no patience with the beginner who will nauseale e himself, and suffer and torture of accusiOming himself to the nui- sancs, when he would be thous and times better without il. We hear every day of cases of heart disease aggravated by the use of tobacco; of that horror. smokers cancer, and now comes repori from London of blindness from the cause. Here is what d London paper says on the subject:
 Tobacco blindness is becoming a common afflIc,ion. At present there are several persons under treatment for it at one London hopital. It first takes the forn oi color blindness, the sufferers who have smoked themselves into this condition being quite unable t. distinguish the color of q piece of red cloth held up before them. Sometimes the victim loses his sight altogether. Although smok ing is to d large extent the cause of the malady, heavy drinking is also partly respousible,"

Fun by the Type.

Among the many errors which have happened in the history of printing, three instances have been so curious that we cannot resist the temptation of reproducing them. On one occasien newspaper re
 port of an accident read thus: "Yesterday a coal porter named John Sharp was received into the chest on Friday evening. It ap
 pears he had gone to the Royal Free Hospital, having received severe bruises about the Metropo- Titan Market to purchase horse. and seeing one to please him, he bought it; he took it home, and while in the act of examining it the animal struck out and kicked him." Another in tance of d ''mixture" occurred through half an account of q farewell sermon and half a paragraph about a mad dog being put together It resd thus: ''The Rev. Jas. Thompson, rector of St. Andrews, preached to a large con course of people on Sunday last. In a few weeks he will bid fare- we'll to his congregation, as his phy Sicians advise him to cross the Atlantic. He exhorted his breth- ren and sisters, and alter Otferinga devOut prayer took a whim to cut up some frantic freaks. He ran up Timothy street to Johnson and down to Benefit street to College. At this stage of the proceedings a couple of boys seized him, tied a tin kettle to his tail, and he again started. A great crowd collected, and for time there was n grand scene of noise, running and con. fusion. After some trouble he was shot by a policeman" These instances are bad enough but they are surpassed by perhaps the greatest hash that ever occurred since Gutenberg invented printing IL was an account of a presentation to a learned ,levine mixed up with an account of Chicago pork establishment. It presented this aspect: "Several of the Rev. Dr. Mudges' friends called upon him yesterday, and after breif conver- sation the unsuspicious pig was selzed by the hind legs and slid along a beam until he reached the hot hot water tank. His friends explained the object of their visit, and presented him with a hand some gold headed butcher who grabbed him by the tail, swung him round. slit his throat from ear to ear, and in less than minute the carcass was in the water. Thereupon he came forward and said, there were times when the feelings overpowered one, and for that reason he would not attempt to do more than thank those around for the manner in which such a hugh animal was cut into fragments was simply astonishing.' The doctor concluded his remarks when the machine seized him, and in less time than it takes to write it the pig was cut into fragments and worked mp into delicious san sages. The occasion will long he remembered by the doctors friends as one of the most delightful of their llves. The best pieces can be produced for tcnpence d pound, and we arc sure that those who have sat so long under his ministry will rejoice that he has been so handsomely treated.'

A JoDaviess County Boy.

"Bill" Burns, formerly of Eliza
beth in this county, is to be hing at
Butte City, Montana, Monday, the
18th. Burns returned from Monta-
ma to this county three years ago
last spring. He claimed the distinc-
ton of being the champion of
Montana" and demonstrated that
during his absence west he had be-
come a decidedly hard citizen. He
and another man named Ryder had
q row with saloon keeper in Eliza
beth, whom they nearly killed. Two
wears ago last winter he had glove
fight in Platteville with Bill Dash
man. He left here about two years
ago. The crime for which he will
answer the penalty with his life next
Monday, is the killing of police
man in Butte City. Several uncles
and numerous cousins of his reside
near ST. Rose, Wis, and are among
the wealthiest and most respected
citizens of Grant county. When a
small boy Bill went to school part
of one term TO the writer, and was
then good boy, but subsequently
fell into drinking habits and evil
ways, the final outcome of which in
q majority of cases is not uncertain.

Cheap Cigars for Good Ones.

Smokers complain, remarked a
Broadway cigar dealer, THAT there
are few places in the city where they
can get even fair cigar for 10 cents
unless they are known as regular Gus
toners, OF course there are some UNI
scrupulous dealers who won't hesitate
to work off poor stock on a customer
whom they never expect to see again.
A man with yalise in his hand or
betraying other indications of being
about to leave the city is looked up
on rs capital victim by dishonest
dealers In many eases the owner
himself is not to blame. He depends
entirely upon his clerk, and doesn't
trouble himself about what swindling
goes on in his store rs long as he is
not the victim The clerk knows that
the owner can keep pretty accurate
idea of the amount of broken stock in
tie case, and that there is little chance
TO knock down very much in the days
receipts The only safe way for him
to steal is to give a 5-cent cigar for a
10-cent one There is no fear of being
detected, because the average smoker
doesn't know a good cigar until he
smokes it, and, as a rule, the cheaper
the cigar the better it looks. To be
sure, the business suffers in the long
run, for i man will steer clear OF u
store where he once got bad cigar,
while the owner wanders why ii IS
that he picks mp SO little transient
trade. h--Nclo York Sun.

4 German Wedding.


The Berlin correspondent of the
London Times telcgaphs;
At IglaiL in Morayia, the marriage
took place OF the young lady in whom
the Emperor William has taken great
interest since he made her acquaint-
aG"e at Ga-iein some six years ago.
Every day during that visit the en-
peror, sitting ;., the window of his
hotel, noticed the young lady in ques-
Con. who is the daughter of cloth
manufacturer, at the window of the
opposite hotel in the Straubinger plat2.
So it happened that when one day the
familiar face was missing, the mon
arch sent an adiutant to inquire the
cause. Thus the little romance began,
and the aged emperor never ceased
his interest in the fraulcin, who was
a clever, Wcll-educatcd, and lively girl,
but not beauty in the ordinary
sense The emperor addressed her
whenever they met on his walks, and
from year 20 year he pressed her for u
promise TO come again the following
season. The monarch further obtained
a promise from her that if she should
become bctothed she would let him
know This Happened last winter,
and the lady thought politeness re-
qujred her to inform the emperor of her
wedding with Herr Kilian, "A merchant
OF lglau. The consequence was that
on Saturday morning there arrived
n large parcel from Berlin, containing
q bracelet richly set with diamonds. u
jewel-boX adorned with the imperial
crown, accompanied 10y letter from
the first court chamberlain saying that
the emperor himself chose this present,
and that he desired the bride TO wear
the bracelet at the ceremony. This
was only accomplished with some diff
cultya~ the customhouse officials would
not deliver the jcWelry until it had re-
cejyc the Austrian hall mark High
pefsonageS had to Interfere to enable
Fraulein Kern to wear the empcror's
present during the ceremony, which
took place in the Jewish synagogue
at lglau.

They Understood Each Other.

Two mothers sat opposite each other
in car on Michigan Central train
going to Toledo the other day. Each
had baby about a year old, and each
baby came in for a share of the admir-
alton Of the passengers. This seemed
to make the mothers jealous. and after
thinking the matter over awhile one of
them leaned across the aisle and said:
II feel it my duty to tell you to go
into the car ahead with your child. as
mine has the whooping-cough."
''Ohl has itP Thanks for your kind
ness. but mine is all over the whoop-
ine-cough and is now coming down
with the measles. Perhaps you had

Fish Ponds in springy Places.

When it becomes desirable to con-
struct a fish pond in place where
there are springs, or to dam up the
water and make a pond i'm Spriugy
place, it is good plan to cover the
springs with several loads of gravel
for the fish to spawn on. The borders,
of such - pond should be made very
shallow, So that the little fish mag
run up in the shallow water aud cs-
cape the large fish, or have the pond
SO arranged that after the fish have
spawned, the large ONES may be re-
moved. BY So doing, the eggs will
hatch out and the young fish win grow
without danger Whu the next sea-
son Of spawning comes, the little fish
may be removed into another pond
and the old ones let in to spawn again.
Such a pond is specially adapted for
